Cell Printing.

Professor Hagan Bayley of Oxford University's Department of Chemistry printing cells for repairs will become a reality in time for a heart repair, could be future as separate lair that surrounded muscle as it would have been damaged.
Spanning the muscle in this open with a printed binding unique from patient here is some of these new technologies their  talking about a printing for interfacing with damaged human tissue filling in a new printed tissue from the patient. It would be more like a strip to be exact a spider web. Because droplet networks are entirely synthetic, have no genome and do not replicate, they avoid some of the problems associated with other approaches to creating artificial tissues – such as those that use stem cells.
They can even mimic nerves, transmitting electric signals, the developers say. The droplet networks are entirely synthetic, which means they avoid problems associated with other artificial tissues - such as stem cells, researcher said. Professor Hagan Bayley of Oxford University's Department of Chemistry, who led the research, said a network of 35,000 droplets had already been created in a prototype. He said 'The research is at a very early stage but this is certainly a huge breakthrough.

Together with a flex head future two laser process, Professor Hagan Bayley of Oxford University's Department of Chemistry said  the printed structures can carry out the functions of tissues by creating a networks of tens of thousands connected droplets.
"The raw material is water and what is called lipid molecules, which protects the water and coats it. 'We add chemicals and bio chemicals. 'This changes the water. After all we humans are made of networks of water droplets.the printer can mimic nerves and are able to transmit electrical signals from one side of a network to the other. ‘A droplet network c.500 microns across with an electrically conductive pathway between electrodes, mimicking a nerve. Despite the droplets being around five times larger than normal living cells, researchers believe there is no reason why they could not be made smaller.
Professor Bayley said: 'Conventional 3D printers aren't up to the job of creating these droplet networks, so we custom built one in our Oxford lab to do it. 'At the moment we've created networks of up to 35,000 droplets but the size of network we can make is really only limited by time and money.
'For our experiments we used two different types of droplet, but there's no reason why you couldn't use 50 or more different kinds.'Droplet network that has self-folded into a hollow ball c.400 microns across.

The unique 3D printer was built by Gabriel Villar, a DPhil student and the lead author of the paper. 3D printers could be used to make artificial human tissue to replace damaged cells, researchers say. The printers use water and lipid molecules to form thousands of connected droplets able to perform cell functions in the bodies, according to a study by Oxford University published in the journal Science. 

Professor Hagan Bayley of Oxford University's Department of Chemistry says these printed 'droplet networks' 

could be used to replace damaged tissue or as a new method for delivering drugs to the body. The revolutionary new technique can print human tissue via a series of 'droplets' - shown here measuring just 500 microns across.
These printed ‘droplet networks’ could be the building blocks of a new kind of technology for delivering drugs to places where they are needed and potentially one day replacing or .
He said: 'The droplet networks can be designed to fold themselves into different shapes after printing - so, for example, a flat shape that resembles the petals of a flower is 'programmed' to fold itself into a hollow ball, which cannot be obtained by direct printing. 'The folding, which resembles muscle movement, is powered by differences that generate water transfer between droplets.
'We have created a scalable way of producing a new type of soft material. 'The printed structures could in principle employ much of the biological machinery that enables the sophisticated behaviour of living cells and tissues.'
